Re: Driver Station required to be visible?

I don't think there's any rule that says the driver station software must be visible while operating the robot. I'd suggest that if you don't have it always visible, you at least make it easy to get to because it has a lot of useful information that you may need to reference in the middle of a match to figure out why your robot isn't working properly. It's also probably the first place FTAs will want to look when you're having connection issues, so don't make your custom dashboard always front so that it covers part of the driver station that may be important to the FTAs,
